EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Courtship of the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo: Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo woos the Lady with the milk-white Hens of Dorking," transports us back to the whimsical world of Edward Lear's beloved nonsense verse. The English artist, illustrator, and writer, best known for his literary nonsense, penned this delightful poem in 1870. The image showcases the character Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo, a mischievous and enamored suitor, attempting to win over a fair lady with an unusual gift. The scene is set in a pastoral idyll, with the lady, adorned in elegant attire, standing amongst a flock of pristine milk-white hens of Dorking. The hens, known for their excellent egg-laying abilities, were a prized possession in the rural English countryside during Lear's time. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo, with a determined look in his eyes, presents the lady with a large jug of milk, hoping it will seal the deal. The cartoonish style of the illustration adds to the playful and absurd nature of the poem. The exaggerated features of the characters and the vibrant colors bring the story to life, making it an enduring favorite for children and adults alike. This print is a delightful reminder of the rich history of nonsense literature and the timeless appeal of Edward Lear's stories and verses. The image also serves as a visual representation of the poem's text, which includes the famous lines: "Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo, he went boo-boo, He went bing-bang, he went boo; And he took a little chicken, And a bottle of rum, And a slice of salami, And a piece of cold goose-shoot, And a bottle of sherry-wine, And a slice of quince-pudding too." This print is a must-have for any collector of Edward Lear's works, as well as for those who appreciate the art of nonsense and the whimsical world it creates.
